Need:

A national specialty retailer needed support for a major merchandising and renovation initiative. The project would last two years and include planogram implementation, signage, and fixture installation. The specialty retailer’s in-house teams were all tied up with other projects, making outside teams a necessity.

• Dedicated teams would be needed to complete renovation projects over a two-year time span and across the USA
• The retailer wanted a partner with a significant market share, high standards, and competitive pricing

Solution:

RGIS was one of the several businesses that bid on this project. RGIS’ skilled merchandising teams completed several test stores to win the bid.

Five core teams, dedicated to the retailer, were assembled. RGIS deployed 20 people to each store for two weeks to complete each remodel.

The dedicated teams were kept in place for two years. This allowed the retailer to test the impact of the earlier remodels and make changes.

Results:

RGIS teams completed 43 remodeling projects across 17 states, requiring 75,000 labor hours. Teams installed and relocated core and specialty fixtures and signage in the locations.

• Dedicated teams worked for two years on the project, allowing adjustments to the planogram as they went
• Teams from RGIS allowed the retailer to focus their in-house teams on the day-to-day operations
